FUSION / 2014
Each year, our limited edition saddles are a bit vibrant, unparalleled to industry saddle norms. So for 2014, continue to stand out from the pack – the new Fusion Gold Collection focuses on simplistic elegance, with a little ‘bling’ factored in. Often times, gold is inappropriately used, but we welcome you to match it to your favorite parts.

Clean and subtle, the Fusions are available in our top selling models (traditional rails and I-Beams), all which bring a similar trait that will always carry value – Gold. Find your ideal Fusion saddle below that will cater to your individual riding needs.

CIRCUIT / 2014
The Circuits are Stiff, Light, Acceleration Kings! Originally designed with competitive road teams, the Circuit platform has evolved, now extending to multiple models and disciplines. The Circuit Carbon Fiber is the road animal and the new Circuit Mountain (MTN) is developed with Kevlar radness and used by world class DH’ers and Enduro riders alike.

Every base in the family are injected with Nylon Glass Fiber which provide optimal weight and strength savings and constructed with a dominate Base Bridge. This bridge allows for ultimate stiffness, resulting in superior power transfer with each pedal stroke. To combat the structural firmness, each Circuit incorporates a Light-Weight EVA foam.

The Circuit defined with a full channel Cut-Out relief and sealed with a base gasket and 1pc. Seamless stitched cover. The MTN delivers relief as a hidden Under-Cut and assembled with a dual panel, double stitched cover. Both use a durable Microfiber material top and the MTN is constructed with bulletproof Kevlar side panels. Ultimately, both deliver a performance tool across all disciplines.

DUSTER / 2014
The Dusters are a Flat-Forward, race ready proven design that allow hours in the saddle. Using a Light-Weight Nylon Glass Fiber base and D2 Edge Flex System, this dual injected base features a soft, rubberized compound along the outer edges of the saddle which allows flex through each pedal stroke, while keeping the center stiff for ultimate power transfer.

Engineered with a Snagless rear and Nose Platform, the Dusters are constructed with a mid-density EVA or Light Weight PU foam and designed for those who desire less pelvis rotation and more mobility. The F Model stays true to the Flat concept, while the P & MTN Models are ergonomically designed with a tip to tail Peri-Canal for added comfort relief. These key features make the Duster an ultimate tool for numerous riding disciplines.

The globally patented I-Beam Technology is the original seat-to-post connection, featuring a monorail design which is proprietary to the SDG brand, allowing the ultimate strength to weight ratio with more fore and aft adjustment capabilities than most traditional rails. All I-Beam Dusters use the Flex-Cavity I-Beam which suspends the monorail for added comfort and shock absorption.

FALCON / 2014
The Falcon is your performance, multi-use tool that excels in nearly every cycling category. From the bottom up, the dependable Nylon Fiber base material complements the Under-Cut relief, which softens the ride with a strategically placed cut-out.

The Light-Weight LPU foam assists with soft tissue relief and features a Peri-Canal — a full tip to tail channel groove for additional comfort. Also incorporated to the foam is a slight Rear-Rise design, delivering sufficient pelvis rotation, enhancing the overall control. For those utilizing the entire saddle for optimal performance, the Falcon also features a Nose Platform that aides with seated climbs, increasing power over the bottom bracket.

The Falcon is constructed with a soft Microfiber cover and the dual panels are stitched Seamless to prevent unnecessary rubbing. By blending top tier materials and the latest technological elements, the Falcon delivers a quality ride and is available in Ti-Alloy or Cro-Mo rails.

FLY / 2014
From Road and Cross-Country disciplines to World Cup DH podiums, the Fly is one of the stiffest and most dependable performance tools in the SDG portfolio. The I-Fly uses a Nylon Glass Fiber, Solid Beam constructed base, with a Honeycomb core, creating one of the lightest strength to weight saddle connections in the world. The Fly railed versions use a light weight Nylon base, properly concaved for superior support.

All Fly models incorporate an EVA foam, minimalisticly designed with a Snagless, Flat-Forward, NO BS approach. Ideal for advanced cyclists with limited seated movements and prefer narrower, stiff saddles.

The Fly series is for power and performance, catering to a wide spectrum of disciplines and available in the patented I-Beam Technology and variable railed options. Each Fly offers multiple coverings depending on the discipline, from Seamless covers, to dual panels and 1pc full Kevlar designs.

BEL AIR / 2014
The Bel-Air saddles are the modern classics – providing ultimate comfort, support and control. The Original uses a resilient Polypropylene base that allows extra flex on the edges through each pedal stroke and incorporates a Base Bridge for stiffness and ideal power transfer. The 2.0 possess the same overall technology with a Nylon base and the super light (SL) I-Beam use a Nylon Glass Fiber in a Solid Beam design, with a Honeycomb structured core for the lightest strength to weight connection possible.

The Bel-Air uses a Mid-Density PU foam, while both the SL and 2.0 adopt the lightest EVA Foam available and all are strategically designed with a Rear-Rise which helps rotate the pelvis forward and can provide extra support for one who likes to use the saddle’s Optimal Rideable Area (ORA). The Bel-Air and the SL incorporate a 3/4 Cut design for perennial relief and the 2.0 uses the Peri-Canal – a full length channel to eliminate pressures to the soft-tissue. The entire Bel-Air series features a Nose Platform, providing greater surface area control and power transfer, while also designed with a Down Curved Nose for moving forward on saddle on seated climbs or in an aggressive forward riding position.

Available in multiple covering options, depending on the specific discipline – Seamless 2.0’s to Microfiber and Kevlar protected sides, these decade proven designs are the ultimate tool for a wide variety of cyclists.

The Light-Weight LPU foam blends with the Cut-Out and supportive platform in the Optimal RideAble (ORA) of the Allure. The Seamless, plush Microfiber top material is the final element that makes this tool so Alluring.

Ideal for a multitude of disciplines, from Road to Mountain and available in variable railed options and stylish cover options.
